Dear Lynx Team,
URLs with non-ascii characers are getting more popular in Europe.
For example: http://www.hörkomm.de (German site).
lynx releases (2.8.6 and 2.8.7) cannot deal with such URLs on my suse or
debian mashines, while various grafic browsers and even LINKS on the
same systems can hande
requests also in the trace file.
Kind regards, Klaus

Lynx experts,
I'm using lynx as URL viewer in the alpine mailer on debian linux
in a simple text console:
url-viewers="/usr/bin/lynx _URL_"
This works fine with html URLs in the mail.
But, as soon as the link in the mail points to a pdf file,
lynx tries to start /usr/bin/xpdf, which, of course,
behave
in the same manner.
Thanks

You can write a script as printer command, which can modify the

Q: are the fixed-size buffers also the reason why lynx cannot deal with
very long URLs (e.g. used in icloud)? The limit seems to be 512
characters, but I'm not sure.
I'm approaching more and more web sites with very long URLs which are
not usable with lynx. The problem appears for example with lyn
Hi,
lynx 2.8.9dev1 (and other versions) on current Ubuntu or Debian systems
cannot display https://www.xing.com .
The command
lynx https://www.xing.com
results in an empty screen and the message:
A'll cookies for domain 'www.xing.com' allowed.
No key strokes are excepted now. Only ctrl-c helps.
May be you should check .lynx.cfg in your home directory.
Specially the viewer entry. Example:
VIEWER:audio/mpeg:mpg123 -v %s
